She died March 25, 1971. She was educated at Montreal High School. She studied art at the School of the Art Association of Montreal from 1914 to 1918 under William Brymmer and Maurice Cullen, and subsequently at the Minneapolis School of Art. In 1921 she was one of the founding members of the Beaver Hall Hill Group, a group of 10 Montreal women artists who came together in the 1920s. She began her teaching career the same year. From 1922 to 1948, she taught at Baron Byng High School in Montreal, where she developed an exemplary and avant-garde art program which trained many future Canadian artists and art educators. She was appointed supervisor of art for the Protestant School Board of Montreal in 1948. She retired from full-time teaching in 1953. She was instrumental in the founding of the High School Art Teaching Association and in 1955 inspired the formation of the Child Art Council which became the Quebec Society for Education through Art.

Custodial history Anne Savage left her pedagogical notes and papers to the Art Education Section of the Department of Fine Arts at Sir George Williams University. After Sir George Williams University merged with Loyola College in 1974 to form Concordia University, the Art Education Department of the Faculty of Fine Arts at Concordia University became the repository of the archives. In 2001 they were donated to the Concordia University Archives by Leah Sherman of the Department of Fine Arts. Professor Sherman had arranged the documents.

    Stephanie Tara Schwartz / Occupation and 20 ans après: Representing 60 Jewish Dissent in Montreal, 1967-1977 Stephanie Tara Schwartz Occupation and 20 ans après: Representing Jewish Activism in Montreal, 1968-1977 Canadian Jewish Studies / Études juives canadiennes, vol. 25, 2017 61 Two NFB documentaries, Bill Reid’s Occupation (1970) and Jacques Bensimon’s 20 ans après (1977) offer an opportunity to reflect on the diverse politics of Montreal Jews during and following Quebec’s Quiet Revolution. Reading these films together, I argue that Montreal Jewish artists and activists should be considered in relation to the complex local and inter- national politics of postcolonial dissent that marked the late 1960s and early 1970s, and that their experiences defy the narrow confines of a ‘third solitude.’ “Everybody, let’s get upstairs! Let’s take a stand now! Let’s go. EVERYBODY that be- lieves in justice take a stand. Don’t sit on your asses anymore. Move up there and take a stand!” Robert Hubsher uttered these words at Sir George Williams University (SGW) on 20 January 1969, passionately encouraging his peers to join the occupa- tion of the computer room on the ninth floor of the Hall Building in protest of the University administration’s failure to deal appropriately with accusations of racism toward a group of West Indian students from their professor Perry Anderson.1 Fea- tured as an interview subject in Mina Shum’s National Film Board (NFB) documen- tary Ninth Floor (2016), Hubsher explains that being Jewish, his early experiences of antisemitism were a factor in his decision to stand up and support his black peers experiencing racism.

    Canadian Jewish Studies / Études juives canadiennes, vol. 24, 2016 199 David Fraser. “Honorary Protestants”: The Jewish School Question in Montreal, 1867-1997 (Toronto: University of To- ronto Press, 2015), 536 pp., ISBN: 9781442630482. If I had a nickel for every time I had to explain the legal aspects of Quebec’s for- mer school tax panels in a lecture on Jewish education, I would have – well, a lot of nickels. Small compensation, nevertheless, for the inevitable glassy looks I get from an audience more interested in hearing about the efforts of the province’s Jews to forge a place within the system through court action, political agitation and even strikes. Happily, with the appearance of David Fraser’s “Honorary Protestants”: The Jewish School Question in Montreal, 1867-1997, I can refer to a full legal history of the topic that is exhaustive in its attention to detail. The book is extensively researched and forcefully argued, outlining the passage of laws pertaining to Jewish education, the debates over their implementation, and their impact on human rights. It is also, despite the detail, lacking in historical context and frustratingly short on nuance. Take the quotation marks in the title, for instance. The phrase comes from my own work, A Meeting of the People: School Boards and Protestant Communities in Quebec, 1801- 1998 (McGill-Queen’s University Press, 2004), co-authored with Mary Anne Pou- tanen, and is the carefully chosen title of Chapter Seven, about the place of Jewish pupils under Protestant school boards. Learning of Fraser’s monograph, we were happy, as always, to see that part of our ambitious study had inspired more detailed research.

  • Achievement & Adjusbment of Jewish Moroccan Students
    Achievement & Adjusbment of Jewish MOroccan Students ABSTRACT TITLE: A Study of the Academie Achievement and Personal and Social Adjustment of Jewish Moroccan Immigrant Students in the English High Schools of Montreal DEGREE: Master of Arts DEPARTMENT: Education AUTHOR: Marvin Julian Godfrey The purpose of this paper is to determine how Moroccan-born and non-Moroccan-born Jewish high school students differ with regard to certain facets of their school life, particularly achievement, attitude and adjustment. A representative sample of fifty Moro~can-born students was selected and matched with a representative sample of non-Moroccan foreign-born Jewish students. Information was gathered through the examination of school records and through the administration of The School Inventory and the California Test of Personality. In each area, the difference between the scores of the two groups J .(' was tested for statistical significance. Additional data was collected through the medium of personal interviews with the students and their teachers. The results of the tests indicate that Moroccan and non- Moroccan Jewish students do not differ significantly in their attitude toward school or in their personal and social adjustment. However, the Moroccan students achieve poorer grades, appear to integrate more slowly, and experience behaviour problems. An attempt was made to provide an explanation for those aspects of their adaptation to the school environment in which Moroccan­ born pupils compare unfavourably with the other new Canadians. Recommendations were suggested in order to facilitate the ad just- ment and social integration of the Moroccan student body. ~. • A STUDY OF THE ACADEMIC ACHIEVEfl'iENT AND PERSONAL AND SOCIAL ADJUSTNEN'r OF JEWISH MOROCCPJ'T IMMIGRANT STUDEtlTS IN THE E:;GLIS?

    04_49.4adams:03_49.3dobraszczyk 568– 11/6/08 5:30 PM Page 908 Collapse and Expand Architecture and Tuberculosis Therapy in Montreal, 1909, 1933, 1954 ANNMARIEADAMS,KEVINSCHWARTZMAN, and DAVID THEODORE During the mid-twentieth century, Montreal’s Royal Edward Laurentian Hospital (now known as the Montreal Chest Institute) enjoyed a reputation as the major tuberculosis referral hospital in Canada’s largest city (fig. 1). Montreal’s notoriety in the campaign against the disease came from having one of the highest mortality rates of large North American cities.1 An im- portant center for innovative medical research and training, Montreal was the site of pioneering developments in tuberculosis surgery, while at the same time maintaining strong links with the sanatorium movement. Montreal surgeon Edward Archibald, for instance, performed the first tho- racoplasty in North America in 1911 at the Royal Edward’s sister institu- tion, the Royal Victoria Hospital. Outspoken surgeon, inventor of modern surgical instruments, and tuberculosis activist Norman Bethune called Montreal his home from 1929 to 1936.2 Annmarie Adams is William C. Macdonald Professor of Architecture at McGill Univer- sity. Kevin Schwartzman is a researcher with the Respiratory Epidemiology and Clinical Research Unit at the Montreal Chest Institute (MCI) and Associate Professor of Medi- cine at McGill University. He is the recipient of a Chercheur-Boursier Clinician career award from the FRSQ (Fonds de la recherche en santé du Québec). David Theodore is a research associate in the School of Architecture at McGill University. The authors thank Valerie Minnett, Mary Phung, Mary Anne Poutanen, and Jan Schotte for helping with this research, and Thomas Schlich for reading an earlier version of this paper.
